Kǒng Fù 孔鮒 (ca. 264–208 BCE), Zǐyú 子魚, also called Kǒng Jiǎ 孔甲, was an eighth-generation descendant of Confucius and the son of the Wèi 魏 minister Kǒng Shùn 孔順. When Chén Shèng 陳勝 (Chén Shè 陳涉) raised his rebellion against Qín in 209 BCE, Kǒng Fù took service with him as Erudite (bóshì 博士); he died at Chén the following year as the rebellion collapsed. According to the Hàn shū yìwén zhì and Yán Shīgǔ’s note, the figure called Kǒng Jiǎ in the Pányú 盤盂 catalog entry is most likely not this Kǒng Fù but rather either the legendary Yellow Emperor’s scribe or the Xià king Kǒng Jiǎ. Cháo Gōngwǔ’s identification of the Kǒng cóngzǐ with the Hàn zhì’s Kǒng Jiǎ pányú is rejected by the SKQS tíyào. Kǒng Fù is the nominal author of Kǒng cóngzǐ 孔叢子 (KR3a0003), but Chén Zhènsūn 陳振孫 already in the Sòng noted that the book records Fù’s own death and so cannot have been composed by him.
